  Here we all are into day number 5 and having a ball! I have been on an eagle binge so far with eagle success at #1, #2, #6, 3 at #5 and 3 at #9. Who else is on a binge?

  Wow SP, that's awesome. I currently don't have any eagles, yet. I'm struggling with these Raptures. Keep up the eagle streak.

  saved a few on my replay page best one from 125 yards so far, looks like this course will be handing out a lot of eagles, came 1 yard from a hole in one, fun course can't wait till the full 18 is in play.

  Hi All,

  Make the best of it guys, once they push those tee's back and change the conditions -  then it will change the whole nature of the course.

  So - have fun for the moment, it will get more difficult  - believe me.

  Cheers Doug

  Hi everyone,

                          I've just made a 93ft putt for eagle on the Par 4 9th hole at St Andrews. I've saved the replay.  I love this course because it's so different from Kiawah Island and Bethpage Black:-) What does everyone else think?

   

  Regards

  Pat

  Love the course?  Well it's a different challenge is all...  I'm not scoring crazy eagles on it yet and the very fast green is only acting like a fast Kiawah green... sometimes...  It's just hard to keep the ball near the hole...  But an excellent challenge I must say....

  No big secret Lily, with the wind behind the green is reachable from the tee, even with my Rapture driver. The green is very flat, so long putts are acheivable as long as you ding the bell! Having said that, not managed to eagle any other holes there yet, though again the par 5 is reachable in 2 in the right conditions.

  no binge here. Just 1 eagle on #5 the first day. None since. Came close on #9 twice.
